Hi Jeremie, Sorry for late reply.Was busy with some paid work. I was working on that SA_SIGINFO work. Modifying Hurd interface definitions now. But got into one problem with GNU libc . Previously i didnt downloaded and build the glibc code. But now for the work i need to. i found the downloading the code here " http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/source_repositories/glibc.html";. Inside hurd i was not able to install git. I get this error when running "apt-get install git-core".
Err http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ sid/main git-man all 1:1.7.9-1 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://cdn.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/git/git-man_1.7.9-1_all.deb 404 Not Found. Seems to be some missing package in my repo list.Please help. Sorry to ask this simple thing, maybe i m not able to do some very basic thing.
